    • “The most funny moment is when the wrestler is screaming for signal to give up 😂😂.”

  • monetization88 mentions

    The monetization aspect of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, primarily due to the overwhelming presence of ads, including unskippable 30-second ads that disrupt gameplay. Many players express frustration over character customization being locked behind a paywall and the frequent crashes caused by ads, leading to a negative impact on the overall gaming experience.

    • “Good game has no ads, love the game a lot.”
    • “Limitlessly fun, the graphics are okay and I was able to look past it; however, after the monetization increase and moving character customization behind a paywall, I'm completely at a loss. I understand the need for ads; developers need income.”
    • “Used to be able to skip constant ads, but making me watch a 30-second advert after every match is ridiculous.”
    • “If I could give the game zero stars, I would. This game is stressful to play. As soon as I got it and played for 5 minutes, I deleted it instantly. The overwhelming ads every single second are insane.”
  • music79 mentions

    The music aspect of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players expressing frustration over the removal of the ability to add custom MP3 entrance music, which has led to crashes and diminished enjoyment. While some praise the existing intro songs as memorable, the lack of creative control over music choices has been a significant drawback for long-time fans. Overall, players are eager for improvements and fixes to restore the custom music feature and enhance the overall audio experience.

    • “The intro song is unforgettable and cool.”
    • “The MP3 feature has always been a real touch because I get bored of the normal music, so being able to choose music is amazing.”
    • “I love this game, but I don't like it as much because now we can't play our own theme songs, which makes the atmosphere super low.”
    • “I don't know what the issue is, but I can't add my own music for entrances anymore. It seems to me that this game is just losing features rather than gaining them.”
    • “I would give you the last two stars if I was able to use the MP3 music I downloaded. When I try to use MP3 music, it just goes to a black screen and then back to the loading screen.”
    • “Keeps crashing whenever you try to use custom music.”
  • gameplay60 mentions

    The gameplay of the wrestling game has received mixed reviews, with many praising its smooth mechanics, unique abilities, and overall fun experience. However, several users expressed frustration with confusing controls, inconsistent pin and submission mechanics, and occasional bugs that hinder the experience. While some appreciate the creative options and deep career mode, others feel that the game lacks polish and could benefit from improved graphics and more refined mechanics.

    • “Super original, easy to control, smooth gameplay and tons of unique abilities.”
    • “Love the game, easy controls and smooth gameplay, I'm playing every time I get a chance!”
    • “The gameplay is fun, yeah, but I am not paying 5 bucks to make my guy look like my own guy.”
    • “Horrible controls and much more; mostly, the controls are just frustrating. This introduces mechanics that are just stupid. For example, the pins and submissions ignore that the referee takes twice as long to count down for me only. The submission and pin are random; it could be the start of the round and the opponent pins you instantly and wins, or you could have pinned them ten times and they still don't lose, but they pin you once and win.”
    • “Very bad animation and horrible reversal mechanics. I would not recommend this game.”
    • “You have no time to react when you're getting grabbed. Why have that mechanic if you can't fight back? The controls are dumb too; why make something that's trash?”
  • story40 mentions

    Overall, players express a desire for more depth and variety in the game's storylines, with many calling for additional side missions, character customization options, and a more engaging story mode.

  • stability34 mentions

    The game suffers from numerous stability issues, including frequent glitches, freezing, and lag, particularly during matches with multiple players. Players report that these bugs can disrupt gameplay significantly, such as stopping countdowns or causing unexpected character behavior. While some enjoy the game despite these problems, the overall consensus indicates a pressing need for improvements in stability and bug fixes.

    • “So it's when I throw the opponent out of the ring and the countdown starts when the opponent's countdown is about to hit 10 and if you accidentally hit the referee just when he's saying 10, it glitches out and the countdown stops working. The 1, 2, 3 countdown doesn't work also.”

    • “I could have rated this game 5 stars but it has a problem: it freezes again and again.”

    • “This game is really good, despite it being almost 10 years old. The replayability is immense, and I often play this game to fill my boredom. My favorite mode is booking, where you manage a specific wrestling company (e.g., Super Lucha Libre), and you can have wrestling matches with 100 people in the matchmaker (exhibition) if your device can handle it. It's amazing that such a fun game was created by a single person. Thanks, and have a good day!”
